PhD in Biological Anthropology

The PhD in Biological Anthropology is an opportunity for original research leading to a dissertation within a structured research environment that encourages both independence and collaboration. The PhD is normally obtained after three years of study (five years part-time) on an approved subject within the field of biological anthropology, and includes an oral examination of the thesis and the general field of knowledge in which it falls. A PhD thesis in Biological Anthropology is expected to be a lucid, scholarly and substantial research contribution to knowledge on its topic, and to demonstrate a good understanding of the wider context of the chosen topic.
